THE LIGHT COLORS OF OUR LED BULBS

WARM WHITE - HERE IS THE COMFORT IN THE FOREGROUND

Characteristics: Corresponds to the light of the bulb and creates a pleasantly warm and cozy atmosphere. Natural materials are particularly effective. Usually used in the living area for direct and indirect lighting eg in furniture. More room for maneuver is provided by LED bulbs, which are dimmable. 
Areas of application: For example, like a ceiling light, ceiling light, wall light and recessed wall luminaire in the living area, sales and waiting areas in which a warm atmosphere is preferred.

NEUTRAL WHITE - THE PLEASANT WORKING LIGHT

Characteristics: Located between warm and daylight white. Ideal for working without completely losing the feel-good character. It is pleasantly bright and inviting, already offers a good color rendering and increased contrast. 
Areas of application: U. a. as recessed ceiling spotlight, ceiling light, wall light and recessed wall spotlights in kitchen, hallway, office, office, doctor's offices, graphic workplaces, as shop lighting and everywhere, where increased attention should be supported.

DAYLIGHT WHITE - THE FUNCTIONALITY IS CLEARLY IN THE FOREGROUND

Characteristics: Comes very close to natural daylight and is eye-catching and activating. It is very bright and rather objective and typically offers high color rendering and high contrast. 
Applications: As a recessed ceiling light, ceiling light, wall light and recessed luminaire in the basement and garage, industry, laboratories, clothing, shoe, jewelry and flower shops, editorial offices and where brightness, highest attention, and concentration in the foreground.

WHAT IS THE SO-CALLED LIGHT COLOR?

It characterizes the white sound of a light source and consists of color temperature and color rendering.

COLOR TEMPERATURE MEASURED IN KELVIN

eg warm white 2700-3000 K. The lower the value, the "warmer" the light, the higher the value the "colder". 
Color rendering measured in (Ra). This is indicated on an index of 0-100 in. 100 corresponds to the highest possible color rendering, ie that of sunlight. The higher the value the better the color rendering. Light sources with a value of Ra 80 and higher are generally regarded as light sources with good color rendering. From Ra 90 we speak of very good color rendering. Indoors, the value should not be below Ra 80.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COLOR TEMPERATURE AND COLOR REPRODUCTION

In simple terms, Kelvin describes the color of the light emitted by a light source.
By contrast, the color rendering index Ra describes how exactly colors are reproduced by a surface when they are "illuminated" with a specific light source. Light sources do not always reproduce the colors of the viewed surface correctly. For example, skin tones may appear pale under the light of certain lamps or vegetables unappetizing.

WHY IS LUMEN THE BENCHMARK FOR THE BRIGHTNESS OF A LIGHT SOURCE?

Lumen measured in (lm) is the unit of measurement of luminous flux. This means the emitted light quantity of an LED light source in all directions. The more lumens the lighter. At the time of the light bulb, it was relatively easy to deduce the brightness from the wattage. There was practically no separate indication of the lumen value because it always increased linearly with the wattage. 
In the age of energy-efficient LED bulbs, this is no longer possible. Why? The LED technology is constantly evolving and every new generation of LEDs achieves more lumens from fewer watts.
For this reason, the lumen is the measured variable with which illuminants with the same emission angle can be reliably compared in their brightness.

10 MYTHS AND FAIRY TALES ABOUT LEDS - THE FACT CHECK

Image
Even today many prejudices circulate around the energy-saving LED (light-emitting diode, also known as a light-emitting diode). She was not bright enough, give off cold light or even harmful to health. That is long gone. We clean up with the 10 most famous myths and fairy tales about LEDs and show you what the LED really can do. 1. LEDs HAVE AN UNNATURAL COLOR RENDERING The opposite is the case. LEDs can reproduce colors almost faithfully. This is measured with the color rendering index CRI (Color Rendering Index). Very good color rendering is when all spectral colors are contained as in sunlight. Then the colors of the illuminated object look natural. Sunlight has a CRI of 100, a white LED is between 70 and 95, a high-pressure sodium vapor lamp has a value of -44. The lower the CRI, the worse the colors are rendered - the higher the more pleasing the colors are to the human eye. Tip: the CRI can be increased by avoiding "warm-white" LED bulbs . 2. LEDs ARE NOT ENVI...

APPLICATIONS FOR LED LIGHTING INSIDE AND OUTSIDE

Image
In recent years, LED technology has developed rapidly.  The first LEDs were used in electrical devices and showed by a red glow, whether the device is on.  Today, LEDs are used almost everywhere.  By widely available light colors and high light output, the LED can be used for almost any purpose.  The small LEDs convince by their adaptability and find more and more useful in general lighting. LED stands for light-emitting diode or luminescence diode.  Invented in 1962, the LED lights served for about 30 years initially as a light indicator and for signal transmission.  It was not until the late 1990s that it was used for the first time in the field of LED lighting.  Thanks to continuous technological improvements, the LED with its many advantages has arrived today in everyday use.  Often criticized in the past, the LED is enjoying increasing popularity today.  Last but not least, the ban on incandescent lamps in 2008 contributed to t...

SPECIFICATIONS OF LEDs 10 TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND

Image
LEDs are becoming increasingly popular. Their design and function ensure unbeatable energy efficiency, which is why the LED has now surpassed the energy-saving lamps. But even with LEDs, there are some differences that should be considered: energy consumption, luminosity or color. The information on the packaging must be understood in order to find the right LED . That is why we show you today what the packaging information in the form of symbols or numbers exactly means. 1. LUMINOSITY Lumen is the key value for the brightness of an LED. In contrast to the good, old wattage Lumen describes the brightness much better. Because the value indicates how high the amount of light that actually radiates a lamp. Today's Watt specifications of modern bulbs are significantly lower than conventional bulbs. On the packaging, you will often only find values ​​between three and nine watts. This is because modern lighting technology consumes much less power. The wattage of modern bulbs, the...
